Vice chancellor of UniMAP led CSR Lecture in Medan

Medan, April 20 - In an effort to expand international cooperation, University Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) has carried out its corporate social responsibility (CSR) to more than 200 students and academic staff of the Islamic University of North Sumatra (UISU) through an academic and industry lecture which was held at the university recently.

According to Dato 'Prof. Dr. Kamarudin, this program is a continuation from the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between UniMAP and UISU. The MoU was signed during the UISU Graduation ceremony last January.

"It is vital for UniMAP to contribute in such noble causes as this program helps to empower us Muslims," he said.

In fact, he said, the lecture is a community service program by UniMAP and its focal idea was to give the lowdown that success in entrepreneurship is made from sacrifices."We also share our personal experiences with the participants to give them a better understanding from a point of view of an entrepreneur," he added.

During the event, UniMAP has given away 10 copies of entrepreneurship books published by UniMAP as a token of appreciation for the support shown by the program participants.

"UniMAP delegations are pleased with the warm reception by its Rector, Assoc. Ir. Dr. Zulkaranain Lubis. UISU’s rector has also expressed his deepest appreciation for our visit," said Dr Kamaruddin.

UniMAP was also represented by the Dean of School of Business Innovation and Technopreneurship (PPIPT), Assoc. Prof Dr. Hazry Desa; Chief Operating Officer (COO) of UniMAP Holdings, Dr Mohd Najmuddin Mohd Hassan and also Deputy Director of Centre for the International Languages, Mr. Shafiq Hizwari.
